About two weeks ago, I commissioned houses that we constructed for our security personnel. Our security personnel did not have houses. I have built some houses for our security personnel. While our security personnel go out there to support, defend and stand up for our society, they require decent housing. I started that venture through the support of the NG-CDF. That is the kind of work the NG-CDF does. We also support emergencies, maternal and child health and other matters that the counties do not. They say there are no sufficient funds for this. The NG-CDF covers whatever is critical. ...

Thank you. It is always important to realise that our institutions are very important social amenities that will definitely have a long term impact on our communities. I support this Motion in saying that our schools should have sufficient space for our children to grow and prosper, for them to have social times and a time they can reflect on while they are out there outdoors.

Thank you, very much, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the work being done by Pan-African Parliament which is very important. Pan- Africanism is a very important phenomenon, which was started back in the times of Kwame Nkrumah and other pioneers of the Pan-African Parliament.

That is an Islamic hat and there is the k ofia, jilbia and there are so many types of kofias in Islam. As much as Hon. Junet has said, the last time we saw it was when Mobuto Seseseko was wearing it. That was the African fashion of it where there was the leopard type. There is the Persian Islamic hat that comes originally from Persia and that is an Islamic hat. To give much more benefit to Hon. Shakeel, that has got more temperament position on it. That is an Islamic hat used in Islamic ceremonies.
